From: Anthony Towns <aj@azure.humbug.org.au> To: Debian Development <debian-devel-announce@lists.debian.org> Subject: [2002-04-16] Release Status Update Date: Tue, 16 Apr 2002 18:38:57 +1000 Hi all, Unhappily, the "move postgresql from non-US to main" part of the "crypto-in-main" transition was harder than expected due to a library package rename (libpgsql2 in stable had be renamed to libpgsql2.1 in woody, but has since been renamed back to libpgsql2). This means that everything that used to link against the postgresql libraries needed to be rebuilt, which tends to take a while. It's mostly been done now, and consequently, postgresql in woody will be updated with the next mirror pulse. Unfortunately, this hasn't been without its casualties. The following packages have been removed since they haven't been properly updated for the new postgresql, or depend on things that haven't be properly updated for the new postgresql. beancounter courier-ssl dbf2sql ddt gtksql libpgsql-ruby med-dent odontolinux pike7-crypto proftpd qttudo sourceforge sql-editor A couple of these packages are held up because of problems with the autobuilders: proftpd is a victim of the current libsasl issues, and odontolinux is broken on arches other than i386 and alpha while php4-pgsql is updated, which in turn is a victim of the current apache symlink breakage. These packages will be reconsidered for inclusion starting tomorrow, but won't actually get reinstated until the various problems they're having are fixed.
